FA Cup quarter-final draw – big boys kept apart

Tom Victor

There are no easy games at this stage of the FA Cup, but some are tougher than others.

Three of the Premier League’s top seven clubs are still involved, and there will be at least two all Premier League ties.

Arguably the pick of the games is Everton’s meeting with Chelsea, while Manchester United will take on West Ham United if they can get past League 1 Shrewsbury Town.

Reading, the only Championship club remaining, will take on Crystal Palace at the Madejski Stadium, while the final tie sees the winner of Arsenal’s replay against Hull City at home to Watford.
